7 4 Introduction On behalf of the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games Organizing Committee (TO2015), I am pleased to introduce this Sport Technical Manual for the TORONTO 2015 Pan American Games. Our mission ignite the spirit through a celebration of sport and culture is built on the foundation of our values: joy, purpose, accountability, collaboration and results. At the heart of this is ensuring that the TORONTO 2015 Games are sport focused and athlete centred. We are dedicated to providing a first-rate field of play and delivering an outstanding experience for all athletes, coaches and officials. We are also committed to providing athletes and teams with the best possible conditions at our competition venues for them to perform at their peak, which include a combination of transformational new facilities and iconic existing locations. The training facilities will be of similarly high standard and will be conveniently located within easy reach of the Athletes Village and satellite accommodation locations. To assist you in your Games preparations, we have prepared this Sport Technical Manual in collaboration with your respective Continental and International Federations. This manual provides the necessary sport-specific content for the successful delivery of each sport competition as well as operational and general information that may be of interest to athletes and teams. The Games provide an opportunity to celebrate and strengthen the goals of fair play and diversity, foster lifelong friendships, promote accessibility and inclusion, and encourage all of us, on and off the field, to practice good sportsmanship. We look forward to welcoming you to Toronto in July Bob O Doherty Senior vice-president, sport TO2015 TECHNICAL MANUAL

8 5 Key Personnel Technical delegate Pat Bailey (ISV) Pan American Sailing Federation president Scott Perry (URU) TO2015 sport manager Fiona Kidd TO2015 Sport Organizing Committee chair David Howard Competition Events Men (2) Women (3) Open* (4) Mixed** (1) RS:X Lightning Laser Radial 49er FX RS:X Laser Standard Sunfish Snipe Hobie 16 J24 *Open: the crew may be all male, all female or a combination of the two genders. **Mixed: the crew must include at least one male and one female. Format Races will be conducted around a course marked by coloured buoys laid out by the race committee. The orientation of the course will be set so that the first leg of the race is into the wind, with the start line at right angles to the wind. There may be up to three race courses laid at the same time, with three or four events simultaneously racing on the same race course. A race may consist of one, two or three laps of the course, as determined by the race committee immediately before the start of the race. The race committee may alter the size of the course and the number of laps to ensure races of a certain length of time. All events will be based on fleet racing as opposed to match racing. Sailing

9 6 Fleet racing Each event will consist of a maximum 12 race opening series plus a medal race, with the exception of the 49erFX, RSX men s and RSX women s events, which will consist of a maximum 16 race opening series plus a medal race. The number of races in the opening series may be less than the maximum number due to weather conditions. In each event, all qualified competitors/crews will participate in all races in the opening series, for which a low point scoring system will be used: the winner of each race will be awarded one point, the competitor/crew finishing second will be awarded two points, and so on. If a competitor/crew is disqualified or fails to finish a race, they will be awarded one more point than the total number of competitors/crews registered in the event. For instance, if there are 10 competitors/crews, failure to finish or disqualification would result in a score of 11 points. The points from the worst race score in the opening series for each competitor/crew will be discarded, and the remaining points will be added together and used to determine the placings. After all races in the opening series, the top five finishers in all events, except the Laser Standard, Laser Radial and Sunfish, will advance to the medal race. The top 50 per cent (rounded up) of the finishers in the Laser Standard, Laser Radial and Sunfish events in the opening series will advance to the medal race. Scores in the medal race will be doubled: two points for first place, four for second place, and so on. Points earned in the medal race will be added to the total points from the opening series to determine the final placings. Any ties in the final placings will be broken in favour of the competitor/crew finishing higher in the medal race. In case of discrepancies between the Sport Technical Manual and the Notice of Race and Sailing Instructions, the Notice of Race and Sailing Instructions will take precedence. Rules, Protests and Appeals, Clothing and Equipment The rules, protests, appeals, clothing and equipment for the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Games sailing competition will be in accordance with the following documents in force at Games time: Racing Rules of Sailing ( ) and the regulations, published by the International Sailing Federation (ISAF) available at sailing.org Class Rules. Any changes to the Class Rules will be specified in the Notice of Race and the Sailing Instructions TO2015 equipment inspection regulations Pan American Sports Organization (PASO) Regulations TO2015 brand guidelines Technical Officials International technical officials will be appointed according to ISAF rules and regulations. Medals and Diplomas Gold, silver and bronze medals will be awarded in every event of the sailing competition. In accordance with PASO Regulations, top-eight diplomas will be awarded in each event.

21 18 Accreditation Accreditation is the process of identifying individuals and their role(s) at the Pan Am Games and ensuring they are granted the appropriate access to fulfil their role(s). The role of the NOC is to register, appropriately, every potential athlete, official, dignitary and press person from its territory. Applications for accreditation must be received by TO2015 no later than March 27, 2015, in order for NOCs to receive their pre-valid cards (PVCs) before the delegations departure for the Games. Eligibility Condition Forms As required by the PASO statute, each athlete and team official must complete an Eligibility Condition Form acknowledging his/her compliance with Games objectives and goals regarding participation in the Games. The form is mandatory and must be signed by participating athletes and officials before their arrival at the Games, in order for their accreditation to be validated. Pre-Valid Cards By May 30, 2015, and following the data verification and pre-delegation registration meetings (pre-drms), TO2015 will produce and send out PVCs to each NOC. NOCs will be responsible for distributing the PVCs to their delegation members before they travel to Toronto. The PVC, along with a valid passport, will serve as an official entry document to Canada. Individuals will be able to enter Canada using this process from May 11, 2015, to August 25, 2015, at 23:59 p.m., for a period of stay no longer than six months from first entry. No additional entry visas will be required during this period. The PVC will be valid for multiple entries, provided it is accompanied on each occasion by a valid passport. Accreditation Card Validation After the delegation registration meeting (DRM) has been completed, eligible delegation members will be able to validate their PVCs, which will provide access to the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletes Village once it opens on July 5, It can also be used to access other official competition and noncompetition venues, as determined during the DRM. Only once the PVC is validated does it become an official Pan Am identity and accreditation card (PIAC). Upon arrival in Toronto, delegation members holding PVCs can have their cards validated (providing the DRM is complete) at one of the Accreditation Centres to gain access to Pan Am venues and the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletes Village.
